As we were driving the relatively short distance between Northallerton

and Thirsk I was aware that, according to Realtime Trains, the 16.12 Tees Port for Felixstowe Freighliner was bearing down on us! Andy put his foot down a bit (as much as you can do in a 1000cc 2002 Nissan Micra!) and we ended up getting to Thirsk with a good few minutes in-hand. 66562 passes through the station on the up slow line going at a fair lick. This is a pretty regularly photographed class 66 for me, having seen it all over the country.
